Any chance of getting this library included? (Preferably where it

the RH pile of stuff!)
If I had to bet, I'd say it is included, although I haven't bothered
checking. If I were that betting man, I think you might have the same
problem I've been noticing sporadically where I get two versions of a
package installed at the same time (as if it's tried to update but
forgotten to erase the old version) through some fault of Yum. e.g.
xen-3.0.3-25.el5
xen-3.0.3-28.el5
Then when it tries to update xen-libs, it won't be able to uninstall
the old version because xen-3.0.3-25.el5 is installed and it's not
allowed to remove the old xen-libs as a dependency.
See if you have multiple versions of Xen installed ("rpm -qa | grep
xen"). Typically you'll see the new and old versions of xen, but only
the old version of xen-libs. Delete the old xen (rpm -e
xen-3.0.3-25.0.4.el5) and then "yum update xen-libs")
